A BLE REVIVAL.
No Standing Room at Times-,Fhe E8f Revival at Dr. TaIAage's Church.

No Standing Room at Times-The Big
 Revival at Dr. Talmage's Church.
 A letter recently received by ex-Couneil- man w. A. Beers from a parishioner of Dr. Talmage's church of Brooklyn gives q glow ing account of revival of religion now in progress there. So great is the interest taken that many are unable to find standing room in this large church, which has 8 seating capacity of some six thousand. In addition to the weekly evening meetings, afternoon Bible readings are given in this church by MT. Munhall, the evangelist, who has been holding forth there for two weeks past and w i'll continue for a time longer. It is said he breaches the old-fash1oned hell rather stronger than pleases some of our more modern theologians, and is almost too con- vincing in his arguments to quite coincide with the views of many of our latter day Bible scholars. The letter furthermore says that "there have been hundreds of recent conversions reported in this church under this good old fashioned preaching. Last Sabbath (Jan. 16l one hundred and twenty five names were read off to join this church and in the Sabbath school ninety more names were added to the list-the present membership of Dr. Talmage's church is three thousand four hundred and forty two. Next Sunday will be communion and bap- tism by sprinkling. In two Sundays from now will be baptism by immersion, thus, as the doctor says, giving all chance to be Baptists or Congregationalists in his church, It is true religion not isms or special cresds that is needed to do the most good and that kind of theology is being most pro6tably felt in Dr. Talmage's and several other churches at the present time. The singing in the tabernacle is purely Congregational, led by the organ and fine eornet player, and those who have not been in this church hardly realize the grand effect that is produced by the union of five or six thousand voices as they send forth their songs of praise, &C., companied by the clarion notes of the harp and timbrel as produced by the skillful players on the cornet and mammoth organ. It is really inspiring"

MISSOURI.

During thcday Thursday special train of
passenger and fat cars, bear
ing John Robinscn's menagerie and circus peo-
pie and their animals from Fort
Scott, Kansas, came into the union depot en-
route 10 Cincinnati, where they are to winter.
About half-past three the train pulled out to
CrosSbTidge, and while passing over puzzle
switch in the depot yards, n fiat car flew the
track, followed by Others, and ran into
a freight train on side track,
dcmoliShing two or three cars and killing
George Squires, a canvasman and badly injur-
ing two other circus men, named Fuller and
Isle. In the smash up some of the animal
cages on the flat cars were brokon and a tiger,
two lions, a leopard, jaguar, an ibex and vul-
tuye escaped. The widest kind of commotion
prevailed.
Depot officials and policemen ran frantically
about shouting warnings, and there was a
general and quick stampede from the yards to
the streets beyond. Circus and depot men
then made a search for the animals. The
leopard was found crouched under freight
car and an attempt was made to lasso him, but
il failed, and the animal rushed from cover.
hit man severely on the leg on his way out;
bounded into the ticket office and then jumped
through n tranSom into tho superintendent
office. He was beseged by circus men, and
after several attempts to capture him and two
or three shots being fired at him, he was
covered with tarpauin and secured. One by
one the other animals were found and, after
more or less trouble, were captured and re-
turned to their cages, but it was not until
nearly dark that the work was over and the
excitement was allayed.
